sincerely asking: are you worried that anyone will suffer from this decision? Personally I can't imagine a scenario where someone actually feels any pain from this naming decision. Adding "nim" to your prologue search is par for the course for many categories of search. I laugh about how often I get guitar string ads because I'm always looking up "elixir string" documentation xD but it's not a pain point. Who suffers here? It's FOSS so the "marketing" of the project has little to do with the name I'd suspect. I mean who is going to pick a technology based on the search-ability? We're talking about decisions being made by people who are highly skilled internet searchers.

It just seems like a minor annoying that could be trivially avoided
